Maybe there needs to be a new thread “Defending the best and 2nd largest** home automation community” where I post stats like we have over 8,000 daily visits*** and where members author 14,569 posts per month. We don’t define the 18k number in a great way—I would love it to be a measure of “high performing developers” but for now it is those developers who have ever saved a SmartApp or device type handler (de-duped, and aggregate over all-time)
This sort of drains me guys. Everything is pulled apart and analyzed to the nth degree. Every time I make a statement here there are 20 more comments “not to be nitpicking” this or that. It is exhausting. I have more important things to do—specifically making sure that the needs of the developers on the SmartThings platform are being recognized and addressed, growing the SmartThings team and making sure they are brought up to speed as best we can, and generally curating the culture we have evolved here at SmartThings to ensure future success and inoculation from outside forces. But don’t worry, I can spend some more time in Google Analytics checking stats.
